Steering question. Truck was hit while parked

[Snooked321]

Hi all, this is my first post, great site to find.
My truck was parked on the street and I came
Home to find that someone had hit it and left.
It was hit on the passenger quarter panel and
Also hit the wheel ats the same time
Now the steering wheel is 180 degrees from
normal to have the wheels straight. Could this
be caused from bent pitman arms? What else
would cause the steering wheel to be in this position?
Thanks so much!!!

Welcome to RF

Sorry to hear, hit and runs are the worst. I hate when jerks do that.

That could be a number of things man, alignment has probably been knocked out, tie rod could be bent, pitman arm (only 1) as you said gonna have to look and see. Post pics if you need help identifying.

If the damage is as bad you said might be worth reporting to the Police. Thats a pretty serious hit to knock the steering wheel sideways.
